Chapter One Thousand and Forty-Six: It is both the path and the answer
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement with his statement, Wu Hao continued: "Dao, this word has many meanings, it is a noun used by our traditional culture to understand nature as oneself. It means the orbit or trajectory of everything, and it can also be said to be the place where things change and move. The Tao can be interpreted as the way, the path to truth, or the solution of a matter.
It can also be likened to the truth, the truth, the answer, the way through which the truth is obtained, the answer.
And this superphotonic computer is to seek some answers for us that we want to know, and it is also a set of paths, or paths, for us to seek those answers. ”
"Wonderful, Tao is both the way and the answer, the solution and the final answer. The name is well chosen. Dong Yiming suddenly realized and praised with a smile.
"That's right, after Haozi's explanation, I also liked the name. It's simple, it's philosophical, and it's representative of our traditional culture. I think so, what do you think? Zhang Jun looked at the crowd and asked.
"Good!" Everyone applauded.
Wu Hao looked at everyone's appreciative smiles and said: "And the Tao Te Ching says that Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things. The Tao is a beginning, the initial stage of the development of all things, the origin of all things in the world, and the mother. Therefore, I take the word 'Dao', and I also hope that this is the source of our company's science and technology, so as to give birth to more advanced technology. It's a metaphor and an expectation. ”
"Good! Papapapa、、、" The crowd applauded.
Zhang Jun shouted happily at the big guy: "Okay, the supercomputer we developed is called 'Dao', as Haozi said, we must also make persistent efforts to develop Dao 1, Dao 2, Dao 3、、、 to add bricks and tiles to our country's super-photonic computer technology, and continue to make progress." ”
Bang Bang Bang ......
With applause, Wu Hao beckoned to everyone and said, "Come on, let's take a group photo together." ”
Seeing Wu Hao say this, everyone immediately began to gather towards him, and then a staff member began to command with a camera.
Although when they entered the building, they handed over their electronic devices, but some of the accompanying publicity and distribution personnel carried professional cameras. Of course, these cameras do not have an external network function, and the relevant photos taken also need to be confirmed and technically processed by the confidentiality office to avoid some key information leakage.
"Mr. Wu, you go a little further to the middle, right. Mr. Zhang, you lean over Mr. Wu, okay. Everyone looks at the camera, is happy, smiles, and leaks your beautiful teeth. Let's count down to three, three, two, one, eggplant! ”
After taking a group photo and laughing, Yang Fan and two technical experts led Wu Hao and them into the passage and came to a luminous column.
A technical expert pressed a few times on the luminous column, and then a block similar to a drawer popped out of the column, and then carefully introduced it to Wu Hao.
These technical experts, in fact, are not suitable for explanation, all kinds of professional data that pop up casually, and people who don't know much about it will be completely blurred after a little detour, which is no different from listening to heavenly books.
On the other hand, Wu Hao had in-depth exchanges with these experts. Although they only briefly exchanged a few technical questions, the experts who listened to it, including Yang Fan, were all red and excited.
However, the timing was not right, and Wu Hao could only give up on-site communication.
When will this 'Dao' superphotonic computer be put into official use? Wu Hao then raised a question that everyone was more concerned about.
Sure enough, after hearing this question, everyone couldn't help but look at it. It's such a good thing, you can't just look good and not use it.
Yang Fan thought for a moment, and then said to everyone's eyes: "At present, this 'Dao' super photon computer has been assembled, and officially started the relevant trial test optimization and improvement stage, the whole process may last about half a year to a year, if nothing else, it can be delivered as soon as this autumn for formal trial, and it should be delivered before the end of this year at the latest."
However, it is currently in the trial testing stage, and there is no problem in undertaking some computing tasks. ”
Hearing Yang Fan's words, Wu Hao smiled: "Great, it can just alleviate our application gap in supercomputing."
As you know, some of our research projects require a lot of data computing, and in the past, we relied on other people's cloud computing services and supercomputers in various places.
It's just that, after all, it's someone else's, and it's inconvenient for us to use it. For example, if we want to apply for supercomputing, we have to queue up, like the most powerful supercomputers in our country, resources are very scarce. Not only is it difficult to apply, but even if you apply, you have to wait in line for a long time, which is very inconvenient and time-consuming.
Now that we finally have our own supercomputing, we can alleviate our computational gap in this area and prioritize those tasks that require urgent computation. ”
Yang Fan nodded and said: "We also decided to do so, first from the applications submitted by the laboratories and project teams of various research institutes, some projects that are more anxious will be given priority. This time, if conditions permit, other related project tasks will be released. ”
In this way, you should do a good job of coordination between the laboratories and project teams of various research institutes, so as not to cause misunderstandings or even conflicts. Wu Hao was a little worried and told Yang Fan. Yes, this can easily happen, especially when there is a scramble for resources. Don't look at a group of scientific researchers, the energy when they really compete for resources is not comparable to ordinary people.
There have been two R&D teams competing for an experimental equipment before, and finally there was a lot of trouble. For this reason, the R&D teams of the two projects have tried all their calculations, and it is useless to persuade anyone.
In the end, it was Wu Hao who came out and quelled the fight.
Zhang Jun on the side was a little worried after hearing their words: "Now that our country's supercomputing resources are tight, I am afraid that after the news of our superphoton computer being successfully developed and put into trial operation spreads, people from all walks of life may compete to kill it." ”
Wu Hao smiled and nodded: "This kind of worry is not unreasonable, but things are always ours, and they have to listen to us no matter what."
At this stage, it is certainly impossible for our superphotonic computer to be open to the outside world, and when it is officially put into operation, it can be appropriately opened to the outside world to undertake some computing tasks when our own computing is satisfied. ”
